MIM ASSUMES MANAGEMENT OF 640-UNIT MATURE LIHTC PORTFOLIO
(Springfield, MO – September 13, 2021) Moline Investment Management [MIM]| Moline Management, LLC, an affordable and market-rate housing specialist investment manager focused on the development, redevelopment, ownership, and operation of multifamily assets across the Midwest and Central U.S. is pleased to announce that it has assumed the management of a 640-unit mature LIHTC portfolio.
“The portfolio is comprised of high-quality assets, but that have just not been managed to their full potential” stated Charles Moline, Founder and CEO of MIM. ‘Dispersed throughout Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas, the portfolio overlays nicely with our existing communities and is a strong addition to our ongoing LIHTC business.”
“Coincident with MIM’s assumption of management responsibilities, we expect to enter into a purchase and sale agreement for these assets within the next 30 days,” continued Moline, “with a closing scheduled for late in the fourth quarter, dependent upon underwriting and investment committee signoff.”
The management assignment was awarded by a U.S.-based private equity firm prominent in LIHTC investments. The firm recently reallocated a portion of its portfolio to other asset classes within the private equity and alternatives investments space, driving the re-balancing.
“This transaction is, first and foremost, a testament to MIM and Moline Management’s track record and reputation for operating LIHTC communities, and our team’s skill at running them efficiently,” offered Paul Arena, MIM’s Chief Operating Officer. “By the time we acquire and close on the portfolio later this year,” continued Arena, “MIM will have greatly improved these assets operationally, which directly benefits every one of the 640 plus residents.” “At the same time, Arena continued, we will have expanded our growing portfolio and market presence as we continue to acquire and develop market-rate communities throughout the Midwest and central states.”
With a significant portion of the properties having a remaining life in the tax credit program of less than four years, MIM will begin to transition certain of these LIHTC assets to market-rate status as they become eligible.

“Our pre-transition diligence indicated, in fact, that a number of the assets were already eligible to transition out of the program and to assume market-rate status,” Arena continued, “yet no steps were taken by the prior management, and there was little to no communication with the Agencies that oversee these programs to discuss the timeline for this transition.”
